Correct. Non-League teams are welcome. This year, the winner will play the league champions in the new GTC Community Shield, which is being played at Villa Park.

I expect some of those teams at the top to field weaker sides than normal so there is every chance for the underdog.

I missed that, I looked at my game and then saw what SOTC had guessed and that was it, my brain couldn't cope with any more information!

Thank you Peter, i must admit, i saw the empty seats there and thought you had beat me. There was never over 60k in the ground. All i can think of, that game was included in the season ticket package, so they must have included those figures in the attendance, but id say there was less the 55k in the ground tbh.

Hi. Rotterdam.

I'm assuming, in view of your name, that you're of a certain age and that, like me, you went to Rotterdam?

Looking forward to the final which is a few weeks away yet, although I notice that we don't actually play West Brom until Saturday 28th April. I think Jon (DMF) has got confused in the excitement of yesterday's game! I'll PM him to clarify.

Cheers.

Brian.

Post by: Dave Clark Five on March 04, 2012, 07:08:14 PM: All sorted now. By the way, the Albion game was chosen so that we have the option of Norwich away as a replay if necessary.

Jon, many thanks indeed for organising this, and particularly for the reminders. I look forward to defending my trophy next season and might even enter the league.

Cheers all.
